Postcode entry on basic nav.

[Don76]

I've just taken delivery of my 7.5 GTD.
Loving it so far, but one thing is annoying me.

How do I enter a full length postcode on the nav?

On the keyboard page you get when entering a new destination, you tap the PTCD button to switch to postcode entry. There's also a search icon in the top right that switches between POI entry, Address entry or Online.

Surprised the salesman didn't show explain this when you picked it up - mine did.

Thanks fella. I'll try this later.
I didn't collect from dealership, it was delivered to my office.

Probably wouldn't have mattered anyway, I collected mine from the dealer and they didn't show me anything.

Does this work on the Nav Pro version because I can't find a postcode option on my 16 Gti

Try this ....

Get to the screen where you enter a new destination
Select Town
At the Town entry screen, you should see a PTCD button

Then depending on the age of the unit you need to select letters input (as opposed to numbers) - key in first one or two letters, then select numeric input and add the numbers, then back to letters to add the space, then back to  numbers to add them and finally select letters to complete the full UK postcode.... simple eh?

NOT!

In Germany the postcodes are numbers so that's why you have to change to letters first.

And that's why I leave it to my co-pilot to do!

Yes but I'm in UK and this is a UK spec car - so just another irritation...
